The Izu Peninsula is located at the edge of the Philippines Sea plate and recognized as a World Geopark. The entire peninsula was formed by volcanic activity.
You will see many volcanic terrains along the roads.
I hope you enjoy driving while imagining how it was formed hundreds of thousands of years ago.
